KING LEARY – Canada Reads Winner
By Paul Quarrington
Published by Anchor Books
The winner of this year’s Canada Reads debate is a sometimes funny, sometimes poignant story about an aging hockey star. But you don’t need to be a hockey fan to enjoy it.
Tracked down by a young advertising executive, King Leary is invited to Toronto to record a ginger ale commercial alongside the NHL’s newest hockey sensation.
Leary travels to the big city with his roommate and a slightly off-kilter male nurse, but he’s also accompanied by his ghosts: Clay Clinton, his one-time best friend and former hockey manager; Manny Oz, Leary’s challenger for the crown; and the hockey-playing monks of Bowmanville Reformatory, where Leary’s career began.
Read by Michael Hogan. Produced by Heather Brown.
